Proposed Improvements on

A Large and commodIous Station
Soon to be Built.

BOSTON, April 29.-In regard to the re-
ported lease of the Boston & Lowell railroad
TO the Boston & Maine, General Manager
Furber Of the Boston & Maine said 1t is true
tnat the directors of both roads had reached
an agreement ON the terms of the lease. In
regard to the connecting roads, Mr.. Furber
SAID the Passumpsic railroad is leased to the
boston d Lowell, and if the lease is assign
able 1t will be transferred to the Boston &
Maine. The lease Of the Northern railroad
mas been agreed upon provided the Legisla-
ture OF New Hampshire will authorize il.
Inc Boston, Concord & Montreal is leased
70 the Boston 81 Lowell, but the stockholders
nave applied to the courts to have the lease
declared invalid. The Nashua d Lowell is
leased to the Boston & Lowell, but the lease
Is not assignable without the consent Of the
Nashua a Lowell. The Boston & Maine
VIII control the st. Johnsbury Il Lake
Ghampiain, which extends from Swanton,
VT. to Whitefeld, N. HI. In fact, said Mr..
Furber; the Boston & Maine will really con-
trol line from Portland to Northampton,

North Conway on the eastern side, and by
way OF Plymouth and the Boston, Concord

oyer which comes the freight from the Cana,
dian Pacific. The only break in this chain
is the Concord railroad from Nashua to Con-
cord, and Mr.. Furber said that satisfactory
arrangements will be made for running over
tnls section. The Boston g. Lowell. Mr..
Furber said, will form part of the great
system OF the Boston & Maine all under one
management. 1t is proposed to enlarge the
present passenger station of the Boston q
Lowell, extending il to cover the space now
occHpied by. the Eastern station. This will |
form spacious station with ample accom- |
modaaons for the several divisions of the |
great railroad system. If the Legislature |
gives the Boston q Maine authority TO close |
tne draw In Miller's river, it will be of great |
advantage to the many thousands who daily |
rue from suburban cities and towns to Bos- |
Ion, as the express trains can then be run |
Wltnout the numerous stops now required by |
me Ir grade crossings of the several railroads.
4 Inc Boston d Maine will in that case raise |
lts tracks and pass over the Fitchburg rail- /
rTsoad, while the tracks of the Eastern and
western divisions of the Boston & Maine
VIII probably be transposed, thus avoiding

JACOB SHARP.
Attempt to Set Aside the Proceed
ings Against Him.

NEW YORK, April 29.-Assistant District
Attorney Nicoll, in the Court of Oyer and
Terminer in this city, today made a motion
to set aside the proceedings. to !quash the in
dictment of Jacob Sharp, the Doodle. giver,
too late. Counsel for Sharp claimed that the
evidence taken before the Senate committee,
on which the indictment against Sharp had
been found. had been illegally obtained.
There was no proof except Sharps testi-
mony before the Senate committee that
would incriminate him. That evidence only
proved that Sharp had deposited $500, 900 in
the Bowery Bank, but did not show that he
had given 1t to the aldermen to influence
them in passing the franchise over the
mayors veto. The counsel then moved that
from a mere sense Of justice the motion be
granted The assistant district attorney
then read sections of the criminal code
showing that such motion should not be
granted. The motion was denied by the
